Abstract

Imposed by gender concerns at a global level, the analysis of professions feminization phenomenon is a very topical concern. Starting with Human Rights and ending with aspects such as stereotypes, professional segregation and gender bias, equality of chances, including gender equality, is the answer to multiple social and economic issues. Following an overview of several studies from this area of interest, the authors made an analysis of women representation degree among external prevention and protection services managers from Romania. The investigation area reflects not only the measure of professions feminisation in occupational health and safety, but a series of stereotypes and obstacles which rise ahead of women engineers, as well. The results of the study enhance identification of improvement areas for the situation of women operating in this domain and comparison with the nowadays global situation (highlighted in studies of gender equality-related institutions).
